Purpose: This study aimed to present an analysis model evaluating evacuation performance considering patient types and procedural evacuation in the medical facility. The user group of the medical facility, including users challenged in evacuation behavior, entails the risk of many casualties. Therefore, it is necessary to plan an evacuation procedure that considers the evacuation characteristics of users. Methods: Through the review of precedent studies, the evacuation procedure of the medical facility, the classification of patient types, and the evacuation procedure was set as conditions and variables for the analysis. The result caused by a variety of conditions and variables were explored. Results: 1) The total evacuation completion time and congestion time were shortened at the procedural evacuation. Moreover, it derived many users from evacuating at the initial phase. 2) The proposed model can provide a basis for proposing a space planning direction that considers the possibility of not carrying out the evacuation plan. 3) It supports safe evacuation by identifying variables that reduce overcrowding by comparing the congestion time of overcrowded spaces. 4) The analysis model can identify the overcrowded space through the evacuation route and suggest the basis for architectural improvements that reduce overcrowding. Implications: The study results can be used to analyze the performance of evacuation procedures and support the establishment of evacuation procedures and building plans for safe evacuation for medical facilities.

It is the best way that to make an inundation map and distribute it to inhabitants for the purpose of decreasing damage of tsunami. To make an inundation map, tsunami which broughthuge damage to Korea should be properly investigated and maximum inundation zonewas selected by simulating tsunami phenomenan. An inundation map must involve the location of shelters and evacuation routes. New evacuation simulation program connected evacuation simulation procedure and tsunami inundation procedure to get inhabitants' evacuation states in real-time.

In this paper, we compare and analyze the evacuation time required at a general hospital using an evacuation simulation program and propose an optimized procedure to improve safety. The paper analyzed the evacuation time of all occupants, including patients who cannot evacuate by themselves. The following four cases were analyzed in order: the width of evacuation stairs is 120cm, 130cm, 140cm, and 150cm. The results of the evacuation simulation showed that the total evacuation time is 1998s, 1796s, 1651s, and 1161s, respectively. For every 10cm increase in the width of the evacuation stairs, the evacuation time decreases by 202s, 145s, and 91s in sequence. The evacuation time decreases as the width of the evacuation stairs increases. However, the rate of reduction in evacuation time decreases. Therefore, simply increasing the width of evacuation stairs cannot significantly improve evacuation efficiency, and it is necessary to choose an appropriate width of evacuation stairs. In addition, all four cases simulations display that after 600 seconds, the evacuees are concentrated in two evacuation stairs, while there are very few evacuees in the other stairs. To solve this problem, it is necessary to disperse the movement route and consider multiple avoidance methods.

It has been determined that two-way evacuation routes that connect houses to evacuation sites should be developed to protect residents of historic preservation areas from future disasters. These routes are required because traditional buildings and other historic spatial elements are located close to each other. It is important to understand residents' perceptions of evacuation routes that connect their houses to temporary safe places to develop evacuation system strategies that include effective two-way evacuation routes. This paper describes a procedure used to construct a two-way evacuation route database designed to preserve two study areas that was based on an interview survey conducted with area residents. The resulting database contained residents' perceptions of evacuation routes. The database contains categorized spatial problems related to these routes that can be used for future research.

This study analyzed the effects of the all-in-one automatic fire shutter (hereinafter referred to as "all-in-one shutter") installed along the fire compartment in a five-story high school building on the evacuation time by using the Pathfinder simulation program. When the all-in-one shutter was added as a new variable, the evacuation time was delayed, indicating insufficient evacuation safety. The evacuation time exceeded the appropriate standard when the evacuation exit was designated to the students in the present state of being placed on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors and the all-in-one shutter was activated. When students were placed on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors under the same conditions, the evacuation time was also greatly exceeded. However, when the width of the entrance was set to 130cm, the evacuation time was almost the same as when the all-in-one shutter was not installed. In high-rise school buildings, the bottleneck caused by all-in-one shutters is becoming a major factor in evacuation barriers. To ensure the evacuation safety of school buildings, it has been judged that evacuation education and training to predict the evacuation time required through the all-in-one shutter entrance and induce an evacuation procedure suitable for the standard evacuation time should be carried out in parallel. The implications of this study and suggestions for effective fire compartments and follow-up studies were discussed.

Spinal epidural hematoma is a rare complication associated with pain control procedures such as facet block, acupuncture, epidural injection, etc. Although it is an uncommon cause of acute myelopathy, and it may require surgical evacuation. We report four patients with epidural hematoma developed after pain control procedures. Two procedures were facet joint blocks and the others were epidural blocks. Pain was the predominant initial symptom in these patients while two patients presented with post-procedural neurological deficits. Surgical evacuation of the hematoma was performed in two patients while in remaining two patients, surgery was initially recommended but not performed since symptoms were progressively improved. Three patients showed near complete recovery except for one patient who recovered with residual deficits. Although, spinal epidural hematoma is a rare condition, it can lead to serious complications like spinal cord compression. Therefore, it is important to be cautious while performing spinal pain control procedure to avoid such complications. Surgical treatment is an effective option to resolve the spinal epidural hematoma.

In regard to the planning of building evacuation in high-rise buildings, the current ruling provisions in domestic Acts are divided into the Building Act and the Fire Services Act to stipulate the requirements of evacuation facilities and the egress plan for fire safety. This fact of two divided Acts is the one reason that the planning of complete building evacuation in case of fire in the high-rise buildings could not have been accomplished successfully on the basic design basis with the current applying procedure of the two Korean Acts.

From the viewpoint of ICT-based disaster prevention design, evacuation route planning is one of the hot topics to be solved. Since we have quite a lot of natural disasters these days, its role has become important more and more than before. In order to deal with this tough problem, a genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted, and a revised selection procedure for preserving variety of individuals in each generation is introduced. As a result of some computer simulations applied to Hizen-Hamashuku, one of the model areas in this research project, it is found that the proposed method is effective.

본 연구는 도시철도 지하역의 '피난' 및 '소방'에 관련한 제도적 현황을 분석하여 현행 도시철도 지하역에서의 '피난'에 대한 제도적 한계점을 도출하여 이를 바탕으로 건축공간적 측면에서의 가이드라인을 제안하고자 하였다. 연구의 결과 다음과 같은 점이 도출되었다. 첫째, 유사 기준이 개별법령에 분리 제정되어 기준 파악이 어렵고 서로 이원화되어 있기 때문에, 도시철도에 한정하여 도시철도 이용객의 이동 동선에 따라 머무는 공간을 표준화하여 규정할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 열차 이용을 위해서는 반드시 '티켓팅' 이라는 특수한 절차를 고려해야 하며 대합실과 승강장 사이에 피난안전구역, 피난계단에 대한 규정이 필요하다. 마지막으로 지하 30m이상 깊이의 대심도에서 승강장이 있는 경우, 현행 건축법과 유사한 기준에 따라 피난층을 설치하도록 할 필요가 있다.

본 연구는 현재 급속히 확산되고 있는 대형 할인점의 지하 매장에 대한 피난성능 개선방안을 제시하기 위한 것으로 주요 내용은 다음과 같다. 할인매장의 건축적 공간 특성 및 피난 상 문제점 분석 지하매장의 거주밀도 분포조사 피난용량 적정성 검토를 위한 피난 시뮬레이션 연구결과, 매장의 실질적인 수용인원을 기준으로 적정피난용량을 결정해야 하며, 피난동선상에 있는임시 판매대, 쇼핑 카트, 그리고 피난층의 계산대가 피난에 중요한 장애요소로서 이에 대한 개선과 제도적 정비가 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 피난시간을 기준 한 성능기준 피난설계 분석결과, 사례분석 대상 지하매장은 적정피난용량을 확보하지 못하고 있음을 보여주었다.
